These
precious teachings and empowerment are not given frequently in
the West,
as
very few Tibetan masters are qualified to bestow these blessings.
The
empowerment and related teachings include the construction and
dissolution of a traditional sand mandala.
According
to the Tibetan Buddhist view, the subjective experience of
death consists of sequential dissolutions,
a
process believed to present unique opportunities for the attainment
of liberation.
The
Tibetan Book of the Dead and Hundred Peaceful and Wrathful Deities
(Zhitro, Tib. zhi khro)
empowerment
and teachings describe the processes of death and rebirth,
introduce
the accompanying experiences,
and
prepare one for making the most of these transient
opportunities encountered in the bardo (intermediate state)
between
death and rebirth.
